Barack Obama launched his campaign in unspectacular
fashion today at Ohio State University, the largest college in the
crucial swing state. A photo posted to twitter by Mitt Romney's campaign spokesman Ryan Williams
reveals sparse attendance. The above image, according to Williams, was
taken during the President's first official campaign speech.

I hope our young citizens will vote smarter than Obama. College graduates are unemployed in record numbers due to Obama's policies. Blacks are unemployed in record numbers too. These groups need to wake up and vote for a strong economy that allows them to prosper.

Instead of giving them jobs he promised 4 years ago, so they can pay those loans, he gives them debt forgiveness on the backs of remaining tax payers. Just more of the liberal welfare state bleeding Americans dry.

It was not, i hate to tell you this but it was not and you are the only fool here, i posted pictures of before it got started and when it was going and afterwards. It has even been debunked online. You and people like you seem to be the only ones ignorant enough to believe this BS. But once again i have no problem proving how ignorant you are.

MSNBC host Alex Wagner, who once said she would like to get rid of the Second Amendment, claimed that Obama gave a speech in a full stadium in Ohio this past weekend WHILE an image of the not-so-full stadium was displayed on the screen.

"We have talked about attendance rates at campaign events. Mitt Romney also had a speech in Detroit at an unfilled stadium. Now this is OSU, a filled stadium. Although it was a capacity 18,300, the president had 14,000 folks out there," Wagner said.

Wagner likened her claim of a full stadium for Obama to a Mitt Romney event earlier in the primary season that took place at the NFL's Detroit Lions stadium where no one was sitting in the stadium seats.

"Mitt Romney, at his rally in Detroit, got 1,200 people out to the speech. Now, neither stadium was filled," Wagner acknowledged just mere moments later.

The Romney event, which was moved from a smaller venue, took place entirely on the field of the stadium. There were no plans to have any of the 1,200 attendees sitting in the stadium seats.

"David Axelrod, unsurprisingly said, 14,000 is 11,000 more than Mitt Romney's ever gotten out to his speeches," Wagner said.

"That was a fired up speech," Wagner said about Obama's campaign kickoff at Ohio State University.
